Maybe there should just be a way to for people to opt in to censorship in their feeds. For example, one could click on a "no racism checkbox" in order to have racist content removed from their feeds. This way, platforms would be responsible for detection instead of curation. It seems like it would be better for the platforms as well.
- tremarley 4y agoThis sounds like a genuinely excellent idea
- dexwiz 4y agoThis just moves the goalposts. Should they be determining what is racist and what is “acceptable” speech?
- osigurdson 4y agoYou could always un-click all filters and get all views (including bots, etc). If the censorship selections are filtering more or less than what you want, it could be flagged to help train the algorithms.
- Spivak 4y agoI mean if I specifically ask Twitter’s moderation team to do this by turning on the filter then… yes? That’s kinda the whole point. Twitter, Reddit, and Tumblr are borderline unusable without blocklists / recursive blockers.
- osigurdson 4y agoFor the downvoters, do you want platform controlled censorship, no censorship at all or something else?
